Sporadic Legionnaires' disease
Authors: F. L. Jones
Journal: JAMA (1978)

The first case of Legionnaires' disease recognized in Pennsylvania since the Philadelphia epidemic of 1976 was that of a 53-year-old emphysematous man who had extensive unilateral pneumonia accompanied by high fever, hypoxemia, and disorientation. His illness progressed despite treatment with cephalothin, but he recovered coincident with the administration of gentamicin and erythromycin. The diagnosis was established serologically by a 32-fold rise in antibody titer to the agent of Legionnaires' disease. Similar illness did not affect others in his community, and infection in four family members was excluded clinically and serologically. (<i>JAMA</i>239:640-641, 1978)
Pulmonary Embolism
Authors: Harold D. Levine
Journal: JAMA (1962)

<h3>To the Editor:—</h3> An alternative and, in the described situation, a much more likely explanation for the sudden, unexplained fatality occurring one month after a motor scooter collision described by "M.D., Illinois" (<i>JAMA</i><b>180</b>:903 [June 9] 1962) would be pulmonary embolism. There have been at least 2 reports in the literature<sup>1,2</sup>in which examination of the exhumed body was justified under similar circumstances.

Cardiac Metabolism
Authors: H. W. Wallace
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1959)

A KNOWLEDGE of myocardial metabolism is becoming increasingly important not only to the general practitioners and internists who treat cardiac disease daily but also to the surgeons who are now utilizing the modern advances of extracorporeal circulation, hypothermia and induced cardiac arrest. This report presents some of the more important aspects of the metabolism of the heart in an effort to stimulate further interest in this subject.Before the perfection of a method of coronary-sinus catheterization most of the investigation of the metabolism of the myocardium was performed on isolated preparations. The advent of the catheterization procedure, along with more . . .

Transfusion-related short-incubation hepatitis in hemophilic patients
Authors: M. A. Hruby
Journal: JAMA (1978)

Nine episodes of a unique short-incubation form of hepatitis were observed during five years in six hemophilic children after infusion with commercial factor VIII concentrate prepared by two different manufacturers. Five patients with a single episode had no previous infusion for 14 months to 14 years. One patient with several episodes had no previous infusion for at least seven months preceding each episode. The illness was mild and self-limited. No seroconversions to cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, toxoplasmosis, or hepatitis A virus occurred. Acute hepatitis B virus infection was also excluded. The findings suggest the presence of one or more non-A, non-B hepatitis agents associated with factor VIII concentrates. (<i>JAMA</i>240:1355-1357, 1978)

Radiotherapeutic OK'd for Neuroendocrine Tumors
Journal: Cancer Discovery (2018)

Abstract The FDA has approved the first drug for locally advanced or metastatic pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma—a radioactive isotope of iodine called iobenguane I 131 that's absorbed by tumor cells. Twenty-five percent of patients who received it reduced their use of antihypertensive drugs by half for at least 6 months.

Fibrinolysis
Authors: Saul I. Cohen, Richard Warren
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1961)

NORMAL human blood contains an inactive proteinase termed plasminogen or profibrinolysin that in the presence of certain activating substances is converted to the active enzyme plasmin or fibrinolysin. This enzyme is capable of activating and hydrolyzing the internal peptide bonds of the protein fibrin, the prime component of the blood clot, as well as other proteins containing structural sites suitable for activation by plasmin.It has been suggested1 that this enzyme in blood may be part of a fundamental homeostatic process that maintains the functional integrity of the vascular bed and thus is directly involved in the etiology of arteriosclerosis. . . .

ANY QUESTIONS
Authors: D. Elliman
Journal: BMJ (1995)

<b>Objective</b>. To evaluate a pharmacy student service focused on patient coronary heart disease (CHD) risk assessment. <b>Design</b>. Fourth-year pharmacy students offered a CHD risk assessment service at 5 physicians9 offices as part of ambulatory care advanced pharmacy practice experience (APPE). Patient acceptance of the service was assessed using a satisfaction survey instrument. <b>Assessment</b>. Fifty-seven students educated 311 patients about CHD risk. Of the 258 patients who completed the satisfaction survey, 245 (95%) reported that the service was helpful in understanding CHD risk, and 79 (31%) learned of a personal CHD risk factor of which they were not previously aware. Student knowledge was assessed using a multiple-choice pretest and posttest focused on CHD knowledge recall. Students9 test scores improved from pretest to posttest (mean 51.6 % ± 1.1 vs. 64. 8% ± 1.0. respectively; <i>p</i> = 0.01). <b>Conclusions</b>. A CHD risk assessment service provided by APPE students in ambulatory care settings was educational for both students and patients.

Stereotactic Radiosurgery Keeps Brain Metastases at Bay
Journal: Cancer Discovery (2016)

According to two clinical trials presented at the American Society for Radiation Oncology's 2016 annual meeting, stereotactic radiosurgery following surgical removal of brain metastases decreases the risk of local recurrence and, compared with whole-brain radiotherapy, offers patients a better quality of life. As such, postoperative stereotactic radiosurgery should be considered a new standard of care for patients whose cancer has spread to the brain.
Health care, medical practice, and medical ethics in Russia today
Authors: B. R. Cassileth
Journal: JAMA (1995)

FOR DECADES Russian leaders sacrificed health care to the financial and human resource needs of military and space efforts. Centralized and government controlled in every respect, Soviet health care became disjointed, inequitable, and inadequate.<sup>1</sup>Presumably egalitarian, the health care system was in fact strictly hierarchical. Bribery to obtain better quality care was common. Physicians had access only to Soviet medical literature. The government concealed information about scientific and clinical advances produced outside of the Soviet Union from most physicians and the general public. Limited information was available, but only in restricted areas of selected central libraries in Moscow and Leningrad (now St Petersburg). Concurrent environmental pollution, alcoholism,<sup>2</sup>tobacco addiction, and poor nutrition led to public health crises of major proportions.<sup>3</sup> For editorial comment see p 1622. Soviet leaders withheld internationally accepted standards of medical ethics, human rights, and patient protection. Thus, Soviet medical ethics did not protect

Their method is based on this hypothesis: in emotional impotence the spinal reflex control of arterial blood flow into the penile venous sinusoids is normal, whereas in organic impotence the control of blood flow is impaired by lesions at the sacral cord or in the nervi erigentes. The penis is put into a cylindrical collimator for estimates of responses of blood flow (counts of131I-human albumin in the penile circulation) to a test dose of a yohimbine-strychnine preparation,...Reference1.

Premedicating patients with melatonin before they are given general anaesthetics significantly reduces the doses of propofol and thiopental needed to induce anaesthesia, according to a prospective randomised double blind study in Anesthesia and Analgesia (2006:103:1448-52).Successful induction was assessed by loss of response to the command "open your eyes" and disappearance of the eyelash reflex.
THE EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF SMALLPOX BY COMPLEMENT FIXATION
Journal: JAMA (1933)

Smallpox, an ancient scourge, is still a menace to mankind, largely because of fanatic refusal by certain sects to use vaccination and because of carelessness in the process of vaccination. According to<i>Public Health Reports</i>, in forty-four states there were 40,706 cases of smallpox in 1929, which had increased to 48,033 in 1930. While fortunately the disease has been mild, a number of outbreaks have occurred recently in large centers, where the danger of an epidemic presented a serious problem. The prevention of contagion obviously depends on early isolation. Since physicians are apt to see few cases now, the clinical diagnosis may be missed or delayed. Recently a specific laboratory aid for the early diagnosis of smallpox was described by Parker and Muckenfuss<sup>1</sup>of Washington University School of Medicine. Briefly, they have adapted the technic of complement fixation with a specific serum for this purpose. They have found that
